U.S. Poised to Shoot Down Chinese Balloon, Biden Will 'Take Care Of It'

UPDATE. - TMZ has obtained video of the moment the balloon was struck, and it's pretty damn dramatic ... and something you might see in a Tom Cruise-led movie. UPDATE. - The Chinese spy balloon, which wasn't carrying passengers, has been shot down. A Chinese spy balloon that's been hovering over the U.S. throughout the week is probably going to meet its maker once it reaches the deep blue ... something President Biden teased. As of Saturday morning, the balloon could be seen fly above the Carolinas and heading East. China says it's an unmanned weather balloon conducting research which accidentally veered off course and floated our way ... but the U.S. has called BS. Instead, intelligence officials are saying it's a surveillance balloon ... and they believe it was sent here intentionally. A second balloon was also spotted floating above Latin America today. The balloon takedown could happen any moment now ... stay tuned.
